Surviving in Woman's world as a novel villain.
Chapter 149 149. Alex, The Green Tea Bastard"Huh! When did you get here? Wait!! What did you just say?"
Sandra was so busy gathering stuff as soon as possible that she had not realised that Alex had been helping her.
She was just thinking one thing, which is to get things asked by Alex as soon as possible to let him go out of there. As new Dick will not go easy on him if he stays here any longer.
But then she noticed what Alex asked her. She was not sure how to reply. It was the first time any man asked her about it, and that too by a super handsome guy.
"I-It's complicated, You see that man there is...was my-"
"Husband, Or I say he WAS your husband, right?"
Sandra wanted to say something as she looked at Dick with complicated eyes, But before she finished her sentence, Alex did it for her.
She in shock looked at Alex with hesitation and alertness in her eyes. This is a core secret of Dick. He was embarrassed to call her his wife.
He not only never announced her as his wife but also purposefully suppressed the news, So Alex knows this means he came here for her with a hidden agenda.
"Hey don't look at me like I am a villain, I know this because I am very much familiar with that look you gave him. After all, not so long ago I was standing there in your place."
Alex quickly shot down the wall of worry that emerged in her heart And said his reason for knowing her secret.
Well, he was not wrong. After all, Alia's plot was quite similar to Dick's because both were tropes of domineering presidents in the dog blood romance .
That's right he encountered his first Female Lead (FL), The one who was forced into marriage by the Yandere trope Male Lead (ML).
Yes, Males can be Yandere too, and they are scarier than female ones, As they do not look cute enough to be slid as a quirky perk.
After all, humans judge things mostly on how good/cute they look and how they make them feel, This is a reason why useless animals like pandas get VIP treatment even though they are dumb as fuck and contribute nothing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhile important beings like Bees and Wasps, Which are crucial for a healthy ecosystem, get ignored, Just because they do not look cute.
No, they are not ignored by bees/wasps because they bite people. That is because even 100 bees/wasps aren't able to cause damage to humans as one panda can. After all, that thing is a wild animal that is like a bear. They eat bamboo, So there is no need to doubt their bite force.
Also bees and wasps only attack when provoked or feel threatened, Which can be ignored seeing how important a role they play in our world but still they get ignored all because of that they are not cute enough.
'Wait! I am in the reverse world, So Dick can be cute in people's eyes here, While Alia is a bad guy.'
Alex wanted to say the unfairness of the world, How there is a duality between gender but seeing he was on the beneficial side he shut up.
"What do you mean?"
Sandra was not able to understand what Alex meant, but she felt in her heart that he was not lying, So her guard against him lowered but did not go away, She was still beware of him.
"I too did not want to marry a woman my family decided for me as she was just like him, Controlling, extremely possessive and sadistic, So I ran away from home."
Alex looked at Sandra who looked at Alex with complicated eyes. She can hear the pain, Unwillingness in his voice, the same as her when her family forced her to marry Dick.
It's just that Alex got a chance to go away, and she didn't, Which made her a little jealous of him.
"Hey, I know you are thinking, I am lucky, right? I, too, thought that while running away from home, I decided to create my own life, Free from all, but then I found out that there is a sharp difference between fantasy and reality."
Alex glanced at Dick to check if he was not looking here. After confirming, he indeed was not looking here, Which would ruin his plan, Alex decided to speak, His voice full of hopelessness, resentment, and agony but surprisingly there was no regret in his voice.
"W-What happened?"
Sandra was affected by his raw emotions and couldn't help but ask him out, She really wanted to know as she too was walking down the same path.
"A lot, I was abandoned by my own family, and they also break all contact with me. My sister who loves me so much did not even come to meet me in these 4 years. Well, I also found out that I was known and praised just because of my family. Without it, I was nothing, nobody.
No one cared how good or talented I was. They only knew I was abandoned and had no background, So my talent was useless. I also did not bring any money with me in a hurry, I was just 18 years old, barely an adult, In a new unknown city without a penny in my pockets.
So you can guess what happened to me, right?"
Alex had a melancholy look in his eye as if he was once again living in that time while talking about it.
Sandra was stunned. She never thought that this handsome man also has to suffer this much. In her eyes, life is easy for men, especially handsome, but now it seems this is not the case. At least she got a job to feed herself, But as a man, how can he handle being alone in the new city.
This Berlin city with its lighting charm is also known as the city of dreams among locals, Because of the number of opportunities here for young people, but this is only the front. It was dark and cruel as it looked bright and lovely.
If this city knew how to lift then this city also knew how to crush someone.
So she can just imagine what he might go through at that time.
"S-So how?! *Gulp* How do you manage?"
Sandra was herself getting emotional as the raw emotions of Alex were enough to make her remember her struggle which now she knows compared to Alex was nothing.
So she could not help but ask, She hoped he will get a good ending even though he was standing in front of him in one piece, As she was too much invested in the story
"I was cold, hungry and mostly afraid. I was taken care of by my family as I was made out of glass since childhood, So for me, it was way scarier and harder to get used to, I thought I would die in the unnamed alley soon.
But then she came, Though she had a cold-uncaring attitude, I still liked her as she was the one who fed me, and gave me warm shelter, while others did not bother to give me a second glance. You can even say I had fallen for her at first sight."
Alex said as one very beautiful divine smile adorned his slender lips.
When Sandra heard about a woman, She for some reason did not like it. An infinite amount of disgust appeared in her heart, not only for the woman but even for Alex too.
But hearing his story and what he goes through resonated so much with her that her disgust for him went away. She can understand why he did what he did, She might do the same thing.
"Not going to ask what happened next?"
Alex stopped and stared at Sandra, Who also looked at his breathtaking face, Which was still covered by that evil face mask, preventing her from appreciating it to the fullest.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut when their eyes met, She quickly dodged it, not daring to look at them. His enchanting eyes were as deep as a void threatening to swallow her whole, She was not sure if she could come back once she had fallen in them.
Still, she couldn't help but want to look at him. A desire to look at beautiful things is inherent, She is not an exception to it.
"Why? She is the woman you fall in love with, and then it was happy ever after, didn't it? This is how every story ends."
Sandra spoke, but her voice had a sour feeling which even she got surprised by. She and this man had nothing to do, Heck she does not even know his name, She can't be jealous of him being with another woman.
But she was, For some reason every time he mentions that woman, She felt a bump in her heart as if someone took something from her.
"Well, My story is different, As it was not the end but the beginning of it. It turns out She was using me, not even for sex as she did not do it with me as I was not worthy in her eyes but for the frame.
I was just a trophy she wanted to show others. You know I know that, I know that from the very beginning, but I had a futile hope she would change. One day, she will love me back if I just drown her in my love.
But it did not happen, Alex who for his self-respect even gave up his family now became a green tea in other's eyes, He who was there for love in other's eyes became money hungry gold miner.
I did not care about others' opinions about me though. For me only she was important, She is the reason why I was even ready to bear those humiliating insults but sadly to my disbelief, she also shared the same opinion.
5 Million, 5 million was the price and worth of me and my love in her eyes, So I give up trying, give up on the futile hope that she will love me back someday, and give up on the thought that I deserve happiness.
After all, How can I be happy when I give thorns to the family, Who always showered me with flowers? Everything happened to me because I deserve it."
Alex was so emotional, Tears were flowing down from his obsidian-like eyes, leaving wet trails behind them.
Sandra was also not in any good condition too. She, too, was crying. She did not know why she was, but she just wanted to cry, take that heavy feeling out of her heart.
It was hurting her so much seeing him hurt.
[Ding! +30 Favorability increased of Sandra for the host (Current: 89, Only one)]
